1929 $10 Federal Reserve Bank Note New York

Description

Brown-sealed $10 National Currency note from the Series of 1929, issued by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The obverse carries a portrait of Alexander Hamilton in an oval frame, flanked by the bold black “TEN” denomination markers and the brown Treasury seal, with the serial number B03648375A printed in brown ink at both upper right and lower left. Text confirms the note is redeemable in lawful money at the United States Treasury or at the bank of issue, and it is secured by United States bonds deposited with the Treasurer.

Signatures of E.E. Jones (Register of the Treasury) and W.O. Woods (Treasurer of the United States) appear in the upper corners, while the Federal Reserve Bank officer signatures of Geo. L. Harrison (Governor) and A.W. Gilbart (Deputy Governor) are printed along the lower portion of the note. The reverse is printed in green ink and features an engraving of the U.S. Treasury Building in Washington, D.C., bordered by scrollwork and repeated “TEN” denomination markers in each corner.

The note shows honest circulation wear consistent with its age, including multiple horizontal and vertical fold lines, soft corners, and general handling softness to the paper. A small separation/tear is visible at the upper right edge, and there is light overall toning and soiling typical of a note that saw active use. No repairs, stamps, or writing beyond the printed and signed elements are present.
